Let Us at Last Praise the Colonizers of Dreams Lyrics

Without pretension
With a sweet chill down my spineFor a time the clouds lift
And what I have resigned to thinking barren
Does bear faultIf I am to die, if I must die
I must inspire while I live
Alongside the dreamers
Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreamsI surrender all, all I have give
To those who survived life's thorns
And provided escape
To those, who's creations live forever
To those that wrote the wordsThough my knees become weak
I will cause my foot another step
To carry the task
And to those that understoodThere is a need for faith
And a need for hope
Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreamsAs with the brightest and the wisest
I know the need of faith, hope
And dreamsI burn for visions and inspiration, for this is life

If perchance I am dreaming
Please, let me sleepTo spend my time in great Atlantis
In search of Camelot
I drink from the grail and war with the immortals
Rather than suck in the ruins of a fallen sky castleAmidst the remnants of once
Mighty Colossus comes this call
Where are the builders?I clearly see the slayers and the hope they destroy
I clearly see the thieves and the wonders they deprive the inspired
Where are the builders?If I am to die, if I must die
I must inspire while I live
Alongside the dreamers
